A deceptively unusual ("wry") new beginning ("dawn") in music, Wry Dawn plays an eclectic mix of "grass-rock" originals: folk-grassy-acoustic tunes with a country-rock-electric edge.  Kinda like Steve Earle + Bob Dylan + The Clancy Bros + Del McCoury + The Grateful Dead + Wilco + The Counting Crows + Jacques Brel + Primus + The Kingston Trio + Great Big Sea + more ... Founded in March '02 and based in Dallas, TX, Wry Dawn is at root the ridiculously cheerful acoustic duo of D.W."dub" Hadley and Paul "sly" Caceres ... With Jeffrey "jg" Gruber on drums, Wry Dawn goes full-band -- and brings in mandolin, (more) guitar, bass, harmonica, papoose, banjo, accordion, and hand percussion, with plenty of audience participation and other surprises (from the "fun kit", of course) ... Wry Dawn is an originals-based band but has a diverse collection of cover tunes ready for any show at hand ...  Right on?  Right arm?  Wry Dawn!
